you are seriously going to defend what is unanimously agreed to be the biggest disappointing aspect of sc2? If you can show me a single reputable game critic that didn't call the game out for its bad story and characters i'd be amazed.
Why shouldn't I expect AAA writing given how much time and money they put into the game especially all the promises they made. Its not that my expectations are "too high" (I don't think that is an excuse at all either. oh its a game you can't expect it to be well made) its that it was sooooooo badly done in every aspect. Characters are generic and stereotypical to the point of stupidity, no character development, story is disjointed, acting is terrible (though in games it usually is) and ultimately none of the characters were likable or interesting.
Look at what Mass Effect did with a fairly generic B movie story line with good characters
The reason I'm so vocal however is not that its so bad. its that it could have been great but the poor writing pulled the game down as a whole along with the poor interface. Imagine if the story was well done and blizzard eventually got around to fixing the interface.
